A remarkable true story from social justice advocate and national bestselling author Julissa Arce about her journey to belong in America while growing up undocumented in Texas.

Born in the picturesque town of Taxco, Mexico, Julissa Arce was left behind for months at a time with her two sisters, a nanny, and her grandma while her parents worked tirelessly in America in hopes of building a home and providing a better life for their children. That is, until her parents brought Julissa to Texas to live with them. From then on, Julissa secretly lived as an undocumented immigrant, went on to become a scholarship winner and an honors college graduate, and climbed the ladder to become a vice president at Goldman Sachs.

This moving, at times heartbreaking, but always inspiring story will show young readers that anything is possible. Julissa's story provides a deep look into the little-understood world of a new generation of undocumented immigrants in the United States today--kids who live next door, sit next to you in class, or may even be one of your best friends.

Honestly Perfect
Color: 1-Black, Size: S
As a student, this Valet has made my life so much easier! I wake up around 530-6, and it's really easy to feel discombobulated so early. I keep everything I need for the day in this valet before I head out: Chapstick, gum, phone, wallet, keys, watch, even change for parking. It just makes my day so much more efficient because I can grab it and head out w/o thinking. Not to mention the material it's super sleek, affordable, and it looks great on any nightstand. It prevents me from missing anything, and its honestly one of the best investments I've made in college for just getting my day started. Thanks again Baoyun! Mad love, - Anthony

Beige Liner picks up lint, difficult to clean
Color: 1-Black, Size: S, Color: 1-Black, Size: S
I purchased this for my husband to organize things on his nightstand. The design is good and it looks nice, but the interior part with the beige suede picks up dark lint and is difficult to clean. It just makes it look dirty. I've tried vacuuming it, using a lint brush, taking it off with tape, etc. to no avail. It would be better if the inside was the same black material as the exterior.

Great for use atop the bedside table!
Very nice! I bought this for my father for his birthday, and he really liked the gift! It's a nice little place for him to keep all of his essentials together on the bedside table. No more losing his watch, keys, wallet, etc. or knocking them off the table!
